The Antarctic Dietzia and Pusillimonas isolates were tested for bioremediation applications. Genomic analyses revealed the potential to degrade complex organic compounds, potential virulence factors and resistance genes. Physiological assays showed a wide range of adaptation to abiotic factors and sensitivity to different groups of antibiotics ...

Superantigen architecture: Functional decoration on a conserved scaffold [PDF]
A defining and consistent feature of the bacterial superantigens from Staphylococcus aureus and Streptococcus pyogenes is their strongly conserved three-dimensional structure.

Abstract Members of Bacillus cereus have been documented as important bacterial pathogens in aquaculture. However, scarce information is available on B. cereus isolates as causal pathogens of big‐belly seahorses Hippocampus abdominalis. In the present study, a B. cereus isolate (SH1), recovered from a disease outbreak on a seahorse farm, was identified

Temperature-dependent inactivating factor of Pseudomonas aeruginosa exotoxin A [PDF]
The adenosine diphosphate ribosyl transferase activity of Pseudomonas aeruginosa exotoxin A(PA toxin) was found to be rapidly destroyed by heating at 45 to 60C but not by heating at 70 to 90C (for at least 30 min). This phenomenon has been previously described for other bacterial toxins (staphylococcal alpha-toxin and Vibrio parahaemolyticus hemolysin)

Pyroptosis in Peripheral Neuropathy: From Molecular Mechanisms to Therapeutic Targeting
Pyroptosis is a key inflammatory cell death pathway in peripheral neuropathy, with opposing roles: it perpetuates neuropathic pain but can be induced to kill neuroblastoma cells. This review consolidates mechanistic understanding and therapeutic strategies, arguing for a shift from disease‐centric to target‐centric treatment approaches to improve ...

Challenging the Clostridium botulinum toxin type A (BoNT/A) with a selection of microorganisms by culture methods and extended storage of used vials to assess the loss of sterility [PDF]
In 2002, botulinum toxin type A (BoNT/A) was approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for cosmetic use. However, there may be procedural differences between the ways in which a clinician handles, applies and stores the product compared to ...
